- Just another historic goal for the Caps’ captain:
Alex Ovechkin’s second-period goal stands as the game winner. It marks Ovechkin’s 122nd career game-winning goal, moving him past Gordie Howe for the second-most game-winning goals in NHL history. Ovechkin only trails Jaromir Jagr (135) for the most GWGs in NHL history.

- Pretty solid start for Caps’ netminder Charlie Lindgren:
From the NHL: Charlie Lindgren (38 saves) recorded his first career win with Washington. His 74 combined saves through two games this season is the second most through a goaltender’s first two career contests with the Capitals behind Gary Inness in 1978-79 (76).
